That's 12 months in a row for Nev now.

Congratulations to Nev on winning both of the quiz.

You mean "I" didn't win ?:speechles

To tell you the truth :inquisiti I can't even read the questions as quick as Nev reads them and answers them :thinking: I have to read them about 3 times to make sure i understand what i've read /dunce

Yes I wish i could speed read that quick as well. 19 seconds is the fastest time i have seen:speechles

How is that possible ?

To answer all 10 questions correctly in 19 seconds = 1.9secs each to read and answer ?

Plays havoc with consistency though as the concept of 'speed reading' is about taking in enough to "get the gist". However, some of my results demonstrate I clearly missed the point completely!

You didn't miss that many though Nev over the last 12 months

[peter thomson]

Bump - we need more players. It only takes a couple of minutes of your time and what about some committee players taking part again

[Wodjno]

And some more THICK PEOPLE please :D

I have just had a go ... so you can only play one game each day?

Either the general knowledge quiz or the specialist quiz.

Is that right?

[NevGroom]

You have to register for each game -

[peter thomson]

You can play both Wayne .You have to sign up for each one.

Nev beat me to it

[White Lightning]

Hmm ... not sure what is going on then ... everytime I try to play the specialist quiz I get the message:

"Not yet!
You have already played today! Try again tomorrow!"

Even though I have not played yet.

[peter thomson]

Logout first and then create a new account in the other quiz

Hmmmmm !!

Where is this site based ? I just tried to log on and got this message !

Daily System Maintenance

We are currently performing our nightly maintenance and backups (4:00 to 4:20 CT). We should be back shortly.


Looks like they are 6 hrs behind us, wherever they are /yes

Just thought i'd try doing the quiz in the daytime when it's nice and quiet, to see if it makes any difference to doing it in the Eve when the Tele's on and the Kids are flying about /dunce

[peter thomson]

I think it is easier during the day sometimes but if somebody came into the lab my times may be a bit long

[Wodjno]

Bring back the TV and Screaming Kids /help
